The story behind “Le Bloom”-

The Cherry Blossoms in Washington, D.C. originated from a 1912 gift of about 3,000 trees from Japan to commemorate a growing friendship between the two nations. The idea was championed by Eliza Scidmore, who had been inspired by the blossoms in Japan, and was supported by First Lady Helen Taft. The first shipment of trees in 1909 was destroyed due to pests, but a second, successful shipment arrived in 1912, and the first lady planted two of the new trees with the Japanese ambassador's wife, an event that kicked off the annual celebration.

Along with this also, “Cancer Awareness” is observed during the months of September and October. With so many people, along with us here at VGO BRAND, whom have been affected by the dealings of Love ones dealing with Cancer, we wanted to release a pack commemorating all that. With the shade of “PINK”, feelings of PEACE and TRANQUILITY come to mind. With this PACK, we just wanted to add a pop of color and no other color could represent that. These are also the times of the reemergence of “VGO BRAND”, hence “Le Bloom”…

"Branded Abroad"

The DMV has become to be known as a "Traveler's Hub". Whether it's the patronizing of tourist or the many people laid over at the many Airports scattered throughout. With that, it inspired me to create a small collection paying homage to that with the "Bon Voyage" Pack. From the segway of the "Le Bloom" Pack, which sheds light on one the most patronized seasons for tourist into the DMV for the "Cherry Blossom" events, the "Bon Voyage" Pack was created to play uniform for said tourist.

Growing up in D.C., one of the greatest Past times is to watch the planes takeoff and land at Reagan National Airport. Families til this day, during the beginning of Spring into the wee of Summer, flock to the grassy medians to take part. The flared out blankets, to the smell of "Old Bay" seasoning in the air because of the seafood that serves as lunch during, this was and still is a time for the family to pause.

Soft tones, Bright seasonal logo, served as the color palette for this collection. Perfect pieces to match the "Perfect Season".- VGOBOY
